First Fill



Recommended Posts

My hubby is in surgery getting his band as I type this. I am so excited for him. After our surgeon finishes his band, I have an appointment with him for my first fill. It's an exciting day at our house!

That's great wish the best recovery for your husband and best of luck to you! Did you lose any weight after surgery?? I didn't and really worried:/

Thank you! I have lost 20 lbs since surgery, but I have been exercising and counting calories like a maniac. I understand it is very normal to not lose right after.

Congrats on your weight loss! The pounds are going to fly off once you get that first fill so good luck!

The fill was super uneventful and my hubby is doing great! I am so excited for him!

I would love it if the pounds would just fly off now, but somehow, I'm guessing it'll keep moving at the same pace. I hope you're right!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
